My question for the presidential candidates: 'Who has the guts to admit we're broke?'

The GOP presidential candidates are in Las Vegas for a CNN debate tonight at 5 p.m.

While there are many questions worth asking the Republican candidates - and the current president - this is mine: Who will admit that the way our country's spending money is unsustainable, and what are you going to do about it? Note: If your answer doesn't involve reforming Social Security, Medicaid and Medicare, we both know your answer is worthless.
